The Golden State Warriors went 5-0 in Las Vegas Summer League action, with Michigan State product Draymond Green coming off the bench to show why he might have been a second-round steal.

Green averaged 6.4 points and 7.6 rebounds, impressing team officials and beat writers alike. Here are some of their reactions:

General manager Bob Myers to the Las Vegas Review-Journal: "He's got a strong skill set, but what Dray does well is he thinks the game. He's a very intelligent player, and sometimes that tends to get overlooked when you're evaluating a player. I can guarantee you he's going to be with us on opening night. We love him."

Assistant coach Pete Myers to the San Francisco Chronicle: "His basketball IQ is far beyond any rookie I have ever seen come into this league. He knows himself, he has a mental toughness and a physical competitiveness. It's going to be hard to keep him off the floor."

Bay Area New Group beat writer Marcus Thompson II on Twitter: "I said from the beginning Draymond Green was the best value the Warriors got in the draft. He may be the best PLAYER they got in the draft!"
